You look really good with this outfit.
My only objection is that the pipe refers to a time before 30s-40s.
Like Sherlock Holmes or something(1800 f e).
Pipe is a very delicate kind of smoking unlike the cigar which was more like the smoking way at that time (30s-40s) among with the drink prohibition.
Over all this is a great composition author & i must say that i really like you in this outfit.
Adds style to you (imho).

Thank you so much karaflazz!! your comment means a lot!!!! I guess I should always in disguise to keep me in style...

Through some research, there's a movie from 1947 called Crossfire played by Robert Young as pipe-smoking detective (haven't seen it though but there's a clip in youtube)
and found this blog.. http://briarfiles.blogspot.com/2009/11/vintage-ad-1940s-kaywoodie-carburetor.html

.. By the mid-1930s, there's a pipe-tooting sailorman who surpassed mickey mouse in popularity known as Popeye

Agreed, nice to see someone actually putting effort in and staging a shot for the contest rather than rifling through their harddrive to find something to enter - props to you!
